Inspired by American colonialism and the final conquest of the U.S. Western frontier, Brazilian and Japanese empire builders collaborated to bring Japanese migrant workers to Brazil, which had the outcome of simultaneously dispossessing Indigenous Brazilians of their land and furthering the expansion of Japanese land and resource possession abroad. Bringing discourses of Latin American and Japanese settler colonialism into rare dialogue with each other, this book offers new insight into understanding the Japanese empire, the history of immigration in Brazil and Latin America, and the past and present of settler colonialism.\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSidney Xu Lu's riveting account of Japanese emigration to Brazil tells of indigenous dispossession, precarious alliances, fascism and war, and the fates of empires and revolutions. He weaves together multiple threads in this brilliant portrait of two states and their intersecting projects of racialized nationalism and settler colonialism.--Louise Young, Professor of History, University of Wisconsin-Madison \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"This is an invaluable contribution to our understanding of Japan's expansionism in Brazil. Tracing migrations and their legacies across the twentieth century, Lu shows how the largest overseas community of Japanese descent came to develop through what he powerfully calls 'collaborative settler colonialism.' An essential resource for students and researchers.\"--Martin Dusinberre, author of \u003ci\u003eMooring the Global Archive: A Japanese Ship and Its Migrant Histories\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Lu's innovative new book brings a fresh understanding to the global dynamics behind Japanese immigration to Brazil through its focus on how state and non-state actors were enmeshed in longer histories of race and racism in the Atlantic and Pacific worlds. This book is an important contribution to the study of transnational studies of migration, diaspora, and colonialism.\"--Jeffrey Lesser, author of \u003ci\u003eLiving and Dying in S?o Paulo: Immigrants, Health, and the Built Environment in Brazil\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"In this impressive follow-up to his outstanding \u003ci\u003eThe Making of Japanese Settler Colonialism\u003c\/i\u003e, Lu explores the concepts of 'collaborative settler colonialism' and the 'migration state.' This is an eye-opening comparative study of unintentional collaboration and the intricate connections among migration, the modern concept of racial hierarchy, and settler-colonialist expansion in modern Japan and Brazil.\"--Ignacio L?pez-Calvo, author of \u003ci\u003eJapanese Brazilian Saudades: Diasporic Identities and Cultural Production\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSidney Xu Lu\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor and Annette and Hugh Gragg Chair of Transnational Asian Studies at Rice University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 258\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.79 x 8.82 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 25, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47476542046386,"sku":"9780520404328","price":62.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/126d66fbd9bf711f9eb1a26191eca0b9.webp?v=1779184398","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/collaborative-settler-colonialism-japanese-migration-to-brazil-in-the-age-of-empires-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
